When spiritual seeking creates distance between close friends

My best friend and I have been walking parallel spiritual paths for years, sharing books and insights, but lately she's gone deep into something I can't follow and I feel like I'm losing her to a version of seeking that feels closed off from me. We used to be able to talk about anything sacred and now there's this careful distance between us.
